  1. 12 Smart Snacks For the Pregnant Women

  2. Summary Are you pregnant? Then, you have to strictly avoid the consumption of some foods. The following snacks can be your ultimate healthy and tasty options during pre-natal period. After getting conceived, it’s true that you have to follow some restrictions on your diet! But, you have to also ensure the consumption of nutritious foods for proper health of both of you and your baby. Visit to your private gynaecologist in Londonfor regular check-ups too and enjoy the following healthy and tasty snacks during pregnancy.

  3. Crackers, Peanut Butter and Apples These are rich in healthy fats, fibre and protein and so, you can consume this between your meals too. Enjoy the natural peanut butter by spreading over sliced apples or any other fruits.

  4. Tortilla Chips Dipped in Guacamole Crunch cravers can increase the intake of whole-grain in form of tortilla chips. You can enjoy this high-fibre option by dipping in Guacamole, loaded with folate. The Vitamin B is really helpful in preventing birth defects. Protein-rich bean dipping is also there if you don’t love avocado.

  5. Yogurt Blended with Fruits and Nuts Choose the low-fat Greek yogurt and blend it with fruits or fruit juice. Spread some nuts over it like raisins for enriching the calcium and protein in your baby. It will help in developing strong skeleton system of your baby.

  6. Fruits and Chocolates Craving for chocolates? Its fine! Consume a bar of chocolate or chocolate-coated food as it will lower the chance of Preeclampsia (organ damage and High Blood Pressure during pregnancy). Chocolate pudding is also useful for enhancing baby’s bone health. Chocolate yogurt possesses similar gut too.

  7. Trail Mix For savoury and sweet snacks, you may try the trail mix- dark chocolate (not milk), sugar-free dried fruits and salt-free nuts. As these contain high-fibre, iron and other minerals it is helpful for constipation. It can be prepared at home too.

  8. Half Tuna Sandwich Only 3 fish servings are recommended to pregnant women. Tuna can be the best one in this perspective as it has low mercury and rich in protein. Its DHA and omega-3-fatty acids develop the baby’s brain. Avocado must be included for adding healthy fat and fibre.

  9. Smoothies Take some amount of milk and yogurt and add some berries and banana to it. Frozen fruits are best to make the smoothies rich and thick. Even you may add extra fibre, vitamins, cocoa powder and peanut butter. Now enjoy the rich sweet smoothie.

  10. Pita Chips and Veggies with Hummus Enjoy this powerhouse known for its high content of fibre. It includes peppers, celery and pre-sliced carrots. Pita chips can be in your snack aisle too if you are looking for the crunchy option. But it is advisable to choose whole wheat pita due to its high fibre content.

  11. Nut and Cheese Plate Get a plate of hard cheese and nuts to enjoy an extraordinary protein-rich combo. It must be included cheese such as Swiss, Parmesan, Gouda and Edam. Soft cheese is not healthy for your baby! But calcium and much-needed fibre can be obtained from nuts (mozzarella stick and almonds).

  12. Protein Bar and Fruits Make your clutch healthy so that you can eat whenever you feel hungry! Energy and protein bars are the nutritious option you can find so far! These are loaded with healthy fats, protein and fibre. These can be enjoyed with canned peaches cup too.

  13. Nuts and Popcorn Prenatal vitamins are important for pregnant women. High-fibre snack like popcorn (excluding salt) is helpful for constipation. It is also a mini-meal for satisfying the sweet tooth.

  14. Ants on the Log Stuff is no-doubt a great source of nutrients to stay energised. Take fibre loaded celery ribs and put high-fibre raisins and peanut butter on its top. Sunflower seeds and almond butter can be the stuffed ingredients too. You can add extra taste by using low-fat creamy cheese.
